CEX/74 PUBLIC PARTICIPATION Mrs Pat Appleton addressed Cabinet, under the general public participation scheme with regard to the installation of a Vodafone telecommunications mast at Croftlands Housing Estate, Ulverston. She informed Cabinet that Ulverston Town Council had unanimously refused the application and the application had also been refused by South Lakeland District Council Planning Department. However, the refusal notice had not been issued in time and had also been sent to the incorrect email address. As the decision notice had not been issued within the requisite 56 days, the applicant had deemed consent for the works. She explained that the works could now commence unless the owner of the land objected and she understood that South Lakeland District Council (SLDC) owned the land. Mrs Appleton highlighted that similar situations were arising throughout the UK and that Planning Departments were falling foul. She stated that local residents had lost all confidence in the democratic process and the collection of signatures of objection had been a complete

  • Westmoreland in the Late Seventeenth Century by Colin Phillips
    WESTMORLAND ABOUT 1670 BY COLIN PHILLIPS Topography and climate This volume prints four documents relating to the hearth tax in Westmorland1. It is important to set these documents in their geographical context. Westmorland, until 1974 was one of England’s ancient counties when it became part of Cumbria. The boundaries are shown on map 1.2 Celia Fiennes’s view in 1698 of ‘…Rich land in the bottoms, as one may call them considering the vast hills above them on all sides…’ was more positive than that of Daniel Defoe who, in 1724, considered Westmorland ‘A country eminent only for being the wildest, most barren and frightful of any that I have passed over in England, or even Wales it self. ’ It was a county of stark topographical contrasts, fringed by long and deep waters of the Lake District, bisected by mountains with high and wild fells. Communications were difficult: Helvellyn, Harter Fell, Shap Fell and the Langdale Fells prevented easy cross-county movement, although there were in the seventeenth century three routes identified with Kirkstone, Shap, and Grayrigg.3 Yet there were more fertile lowland areas and 1 TNA, Exchequer, lay subsidy rolls, E179/195/73, compiled for the Michaelmas 1670 collection, and including Kendal borough. The document was printed as extracts in W. Farrer, Records relating to the barony of Kendale, ed. J. F. Curwen (CWAAS, Record Series, 4 & 5 1923, 1924; reprinted 1998, 1999); and, without the exempt, in The later records relating to north Westmorland, ed. J. F.

  • South Lakeland District Council Flooding in South Lakeland
    South Lakeland District Council Flooding in South Lakeland - Full Council, February 24th 2016 – Appendix 1 Introduction 1.1. This report is presented to brief Members on the current situation of the flooding impacts and recovery. The report summarises the role of the Council in the context of multi-agency response to the emergency and recovery, the financial impacts of the flood on the Council’s budget and delivery impacts on the Councils work. 2. The flood event 2.1. The severe flooding which resulted during storm Desmond 4-6th December was exacerbated by the already very wet ground conditions brought about by storms Abigail 12-13th November, Barney 17-18th November and Clodagh 29th November. Many parts of north-west Britain had already recorded more than twice the monthly average rainfall during November. Across north-west England and North Wales, November 2015 was the second wettest November in a series from 1910; only November 2009 was wetter. 2.2. Storm Desmond delivered exceptionally high rainfall totals across the Cumbrian fells. 341.4mm of rain fell at Honister Pass, Cumbria, on 5 December 2015, a new UK rainfall record. About 120 weather and flood related alerts were received between12th Nov 2015 to Christmas Day. The paths taken by the exceptional storms differed only slightly - with Cumbria narrowly escaping the immediate impacts of storms Eva and Frank 2.3. These floods followed severe flooding affecting Cumbria in November 2009 and the major floods in Carlisle in January 2005. 3. Residential properties affected 3.1. Kendal – In total 1,401 properties were affected in Kendal, accounting for 72% of all affected properties across the district.

    Mapping the Late Medieval and Post Medieval Landscape of Cumbria Two Volumes Volume 1: Text Caron Egerton Newman Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of History, Classics and Archaeology Newcastle University Submitted: June 2014 Abstract This study is an analysis of the development of rural settlement patterns and field systems in Cumbria from the later medieval period through to the late eighteenth century. It uses documentary, cartographic and archaeological evidence. This evidence is interpreted utilising the techniques of historic landscape characterisation (HLC), map regression and maps created by the author, summarising and synthesising historical and archaeological data. The mapped settlement data, in particular, has been manipulated using tools of graphic analysis available within a Graphical Information System (GIS). The initial product is a digital map of Cumbria in the late eighteenth century, based on the county-scale maps of that period, enhanced with information taken from enclosure maps and awards, and other post medieval cartographic sources. From this baseline, an interpretation of the late medieval landscape was developed by adding information from other data sources, such as place names and documentary evidence. The approach was necessarily top-down and broad brush, in order to provide a landscape-scale, sub-regional view. This both addresses the deficiencies within the standard historical approach to landscape development, and complements such approaches. Standard historical approaches are strong on detail, but can be weak when conclusions based on localised examples are extrapolated and attributed to the wider landscape. The methodology adopted by this study allows those local analyses to be set within a broader landscape context, providing another tool to use alongside more traditional approaches to historic landscape studies.

  • THE GATEWAY Millennium
    So how well do you know your Church? Here are the answers to last month’s quiz plus a little background information 1. There are 6 bells in our Tower; all were retuned and rehung in 1999 in time for them to be rung for the THE GATEWAY Millennium. 2. We had a competition to name the Tenor bell, and the name chosen was ‘Brigadier’ in honour of the late Parish Magazine of Brigadier C. Tyron-Wilson who was a great benefactor of the church for many years. We are St Michael & All Angels, Beetham fortunate that the congregation can watch our bell-ringers at work each Sunday (if only) as we have a ground floor ringing chamber; many churches’ bells are up very narrow and winding stairs as our ringers discover on their annual Bell-ringers ‘World Tour’ (a one day trip to 3 or 4 June 2020 other churches to try out their bells). 3. The 3 flags that are flown from the Tower are the Union (Jack) flag, St. Georges’ flag Eastertide Celebrations and Duck Day flag! All have been dutifully flown even during these ‘locked up’ (or is it www.beethamstmichaelandallangels.co.uk ‘down’?) times, as our clock winding churchwarden has included them in his weekly ‘stroll’ to Beetham. I hope the villagers noticed. As we reach the joyous celebration of Pentecost, we reflect on what a different Eastertide we have 4. The ‘Mass Dials’ (there are 2) were ‘discovered’ by Revd Sandy Lofthouse. They are circular indentations in all experienced this year. Our church was locked just before Palm Sunday, and our church services the stonework - one by the South door which leads into the Lady Chapel and the second is on the corner during the 50 days of Eastertide between Easter Sunday and Pentecost Sunday have had to be stones in the East wall.
